I've been messing around with an automatic troll filter for ponder.cat that auto-blocks the doo doo head accounts regardless of whether the mods are doing their jobs. No Linkerbaan, no UM back when he was around, no MBFC bot. There are around a couple of hundred users that everyone universally dislikes, and with them gone, the place is much nicer.
I've found that just avoiding lemmy.world takes care of 90% of the problem, so I haven't done much with the programmatic solution, but if you want to browse the bad communities without the bad people I can probably hook you up.
On this count I fail. It's two guys, no spiders, sometimes a cat, and a pretty uncertain future.
Moving to Lemmy.world from Lemmy.today was actually a solution that decreased the tankie activity I saw, interestingly enough.
Yeah, just doing away with LW in all my subscriptions made so much of the stupidity go away. I'm still on [email protected], but just as of the last day or two, it's been showing some kind of federation problem, so I think I will let it go as well.
The niche communities with responsible moderators on LW are still great. The stuff that flows out of that big planned-economy org chart has some kind of rot going on with it that you don't even realize the extent of, until you remove it from your Lemmy.
He's still around, he showed up in my All feed the other day, on lemm.ee now IIRC
He's got an account on sh.itjust.works, too.
I'm not sure what's the moderation philosophy that's welcoming him to these instances. It's possible that because he hasn't caused a problem yet on the new accounts, there's no harm done, but I would be saddened and surprised if the more up-to-speed places were as lenient with him as LW was.
